Something I knew already, but felt it should be shared.  He wanted the black slaves to be free in a homeland that was suited for them. In this situation it was Central America.

And he wasn't far off that whites and blacks generally couldn't coexist. Look what has happened in most areas of this country.  Albiet, some places, blacks and whites get along fine and coexist because they aren't animals...and in other areas they can coexist because both can be animals...

He wanted to ship them back to africa but it was too expensive.
Little did they know how expensive it would cost.

Imagine if slave israelites never left egypt. To free the blacks should have meant sending them back fine.

Yes. Lincoln favored the forced emigration of blacks.

He was planing to homestead them in Liberia.
